One more question. As far as the final tube that runs to the regulator- you have it coming off the top run- would it be better to have it come off that leg but at the bottom a few inches above the drain valve and then come out to the side and run a new line back up to the regulator? If that...
I wasn't trying to be accusatory. I was just saying you said to pull from the bottom then said the top was more efficient. That's a good thought about pulling off the top might go straight to the regulator. I'll prob put the inlet in the middle of the first leg with a T. Not at the top or the...
Michael, my bad. I swear I thought that was tool *****. My fault. I was replying from my phone...
But what I said still stands about tool ***** flip flopping on the air placement.
It's still not too late to do whatever will work best. I was thinking figured 1 would work best but now...
Yes he did...
"Having all those tubes and dividing the air among them slows down the air so it cools more effectively. "
That was in response to my question omit working better than figure 1. Also, you're now saying that the air entering at the botto
Wouldn't be as efficient as it entering...
Nice. So that's what I'm doing then since it works better than figure 1 at the most important job it's there for. Thanks for all the help! I'll be sure and post pics whenever it's does. The regulator/filter is on it's way as we speak.
Ok well I think I'm just going to have it entern at the top. Looks cleaner to me and less fittings as well.
So you're saying that it would cool more effectively in that scenario than if it had to follow a specific path? That would be nice. I 'm just going to use a 1/2" ball valve for the...
Tool *****, like I said, unfortunately it's not feasable to do the horizontal runs.
I like the idea of the drain being a few inches to be able to collect water. That makes sense. But when I'm thinking about the air hose being at the bottom, why wouldn't the water that's formed in that first...
I'm sticking with copper because it local, effective and I'm doing it myself in my garage, not a large shop.
Ratdog, appreciate your pics. Looks great. I unfortunately can't do the horizontal runs- no room.
So it's looking like vertical runs with multiple drain valves at the bottom...Oh...
Hmmmm that was my concern too. I would love it if it would work as good or better than the figure 1 setup. I'd like to figure it out ASAP as I need to go ahead and plumb this stuff up because I have someone waiting on some work that needs to be done.
Michael, yea that was my concern too. Ok, figure 2 is out. Now look at this picture I made based off what you said. I think this is what you were talking about. My only question is, are there any negatives for have them all connect and not have to go the full path of ups and downs like in...
